Slow Cooker Mac and Cheese

By hicksofmarvin

Ingredients

• 3 cups pasta, uncooked
• 3 Tbl. butter, unsalted
• 8 oz. Velveeta cheese, cubed
• 1 1/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 tsp. Dijon mustard
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Cook the pasta in salted boiling water for 5 minutes or until it is just under al dente.  Drain and place in the slow cooker. 

Add the remaining ingredients to the pasta and stir until well combined. 

Cook on high for 2 – 3 hours stirring about every 30 minutes.

Note: Some people have mentioned their mixture finished cooking after 1 1/2 hours on high. It really depends on the type of slow cooker you have. So it wouldn’t hurt to check for doneness at that time.  The pasta should still hold its shape and the cheese is completely creamy.
